JDOW, a spammer? Now thats choice. Some of you are just whippersnappers in internet years. Joanne was there when it started I think, before me and I've been on since about '87 or so, when the thing for the masses was delphi, on a 300 baud circuit I had to pay ld charges on to get to. Running a trs-80 Color Computer and an operating system called os9 at the time. I first encountered JDOW on an amiga list in the very early 90's. Maybe this lady who uses the JDOW handle should re-introduce herself to these newbies? Tell them about the BIXIES maybe. >I initially thought it was spam too, but note the "slips past the >filters" added. > >I think in a weird way, JDOW was suggesting something be added to SA >to score on the spam he/she received. Exactly. -- Cheers, Gene People having trouble with vz bouncing email to me should add the word 'online' between the 'verizon', and the dot which bypasses vz's stupid bounce rules. I do use spamassassin too. :-) Yahoo.com and AOL/TW attorneys please note, additions to the above message by Gene Heskett are: Copyright 2005 by Maurice Eugene Heskett, all rights reserved.
